Well I didn't answer your inquiry but here is my vote and I would hazard to guess it is so for the ones that did not respond - I DO NOT want the AC forum to be moderated and agree with Ken Haamer's points above. If you don't like the forum then feel free to leave.

Let me get this right...you are asking me to leave? What authority do you have? Look I don't know you and I can care less of what you think of me but one thing for sure, don't make it sound as though what you believe is the majority's view.

And I can say this as well to further a point that Ken put forward. A lot of people on Air Canada forum has considerbly diminished their participation because:

1) The forum is like a chaos with a lot of irrelevant discussions not related to travel or miles which is the prime purpose of Flyertalk

2) An influx of flame wars and inability to stay on topic

3) People like you who don't think before they speak and thus prompting many knowledgeable people stay shut and withold information at the detriment of all members

It's your loss not mine and please, if this is the kind of place you like to hang out, I want none of it. Thank you very much.


A side note, silence is irreleavnt. This topic is not about the need of a moderator for the AC forum. I promise, as much as I hate to do it, I will start a thread disclosing the discussions, information and questions raised during the e-mail exchanges conducted about 2 months ago. I will also take it upon myself to organize the data in an efficient and clear manner for people to debate and discuss. In case you are wondering, it certainly wasn't a simple yes/no type of responses. The memebers who choose to participate, most of them took time to give detailed answers either they support or they are against. And all with very few exceptions, were very polite and thorough. And in case you are wondering, I don't even remember including Altaflyer on the list, it was based on people who partcipated in the discussion almost 6 months ago, I figured people who were in that discussion would be interested in talking about it.
